Hung out with my BFF Rick again today
Lotta great signs as per usual. This one tho...
She was just in the crowd, but talked with us about her dad being a part of one of the first groups into a concentration camp.
As she was sharing this, a man with a Ukrainian flag around his shoulders came up and started crying as he listened to her. His Jewish grandparents came to America after the camp they were in was liberated.
It wasn't the same one (can't remember the camps names, dammit), but still an incredibly powerful moment.
He'll fall asleep, wake up when the barricades are breached and the people are killed by the military, then leave the theatre and say it was a great piece of work.
Pity we can't get him to be fully inspired by Javert- a lotta bridges in the nation's Capitol.
I use Textra- lot of customization. There may be others with more bells and whistles, but I've got it dialed in the way I want it and I don't have to think much about it.
Over by UW, you can rent a kayak and explore Lake Union or head through the Montlake Cut out to Lake Washington. Pretty good Mexican restaurant right upstairs when you're finished (or, instead of going in the first place). It's going to be a great week of weather...
If you have time and want to head out to Woodinville next time you're out, send me a DM- I have a friend who runs one of the tasting rooms out that way and does a good job helping people find new wines (or drink lots of ones they're already familiar with)
To be fair... It's likely that most of us also assumed the other guy was going to be impeached or indicted in a way that ensured he couldn't run again. Whoops.
(I was aware... riffing on "a running zone" being the same thing as "running zone" that we complain about as the OC calls another stretch play to the boundary)
